Before you choose
Check the pricing path

Published starting prices include $10 per user per month for GoAudits, $18 for Kizeo Forms, $24 for FastField, $29 for GoCanvas and $43 for Fulcrum, with annual billing noted.
Look for a trial
Trial periods vary by product. ArcGIS Survey123 lists 21 days; Flowfinity, Fulcrum and GoAudits list 14 days; Kizeo Forms lists 15 days. GoFormz lists a 14-day trial alongside its free plan.
Match your devices
Check whether the tool runs on the platforms your team uses. The list covers web, Android, API, iOS, Windows and self-hosted deployments.
Confirm mobile support before choosing a workflow. Android and iOS availability are compared separately from web and desktop access.
Plan for field collection
Compare offline form access when work may continue without a connection. Review submission limits before setting volumes for a project.
Photo capture and signature capture are separate comparison points, so check for the inputs your forms require.
Review workflow needs
Workflow automation is a comparison field in this category. Match the tool's workflow support to the steps that follow a form submission.
If your team needs to change or host the code, check whether the product offers open-source code or a self-hosted option.
